Big congrats @91ganesh91 !

[Ganesh U. Patil @91ganesh91]

Excited to have won the 1st place (joint) in the USNC/TAM 5-minute PhD Thesis in Mechanics Competition! If you're curious, check out finalists presentation here: https://t.co/qpZbXB9fV6. I present at 59.50 in the video.

@ERoumeli Congrats Eleftheria!!!

[Katie Matlack @KathrynMatlack]

Super proud of Dr. Ganesh Patil @91ganesh91 on his successful PhD defense on nonlinear phononic materials! Many great things lay ahead I am sure!

[Ganesh U. Patil @91ganesh91]

Proclaimed 'Doctor' today! Special thanks to advisor extraordinaire @KathrynMatlack and the committee (@MCSlab_uiuc, @tribo_tweets, and Prof. Vakakis) for their thought-provoking discussions. Excited for what lies ahead!

[Katie Matlack @KathrynMatlack]

@91ganesh91 @MCSlab_uiuc @tribo_tweets Big congratulations Ganesh, very well done!!

[Katie Matlack @KathrynMatlack]

@ERoumeli Congrats to you too, Eleftheria!!

Thrilled to have this opportunity to work in the exciting domain of metamaterial FSI with a fantastic team from @mechseILLINOIS @AEatIllinois @CaltechEAS @BU_mech and @PennEngineers. Very grateful to @AFOSR for this support!

[AFOSR @AFOSR]

Congrats to the FY23 @DeptofDefense MURI Program Award Recipients! 👏 MURI supports #basicresearch in the science and engineering areas intersecting more than one traditional discipline. @AFResearchLab @DoDCTO @DoD_BasicRsch #AFOSRBoldResearch #AFOSRMURI https://t.co/ti3xhgvL6j

[Katie Matlack @KathrynMatlack]

Congratulations to the first PhD graduate of the WPM lab Dr. Changgong Kim! He’s done some amazing work on ultrasonic NDE. @mechseILLINOIS #proudAdvisor

[Katie Matlack @KathrynMatlack]

Only a few days left to submit to Society of Engineering Science 2022 at Texas A&M in Oct...Consider submitting to our symposium on "Controlling Mechanical Waves with Metamaterials"! Abstracts due May 16. https://t.co/5YvPIAQ7y3 @DennisKochmann @Thevamaran

[Ganesh U. Patil @91ganesh91]

Can the same #phononic material support both #acoustic attenuation and #SolitaryWave?
Yes, through discrete nonlinearity in a continuum. Our @PhysRevE article discusses phenomena of acoustic resonances and stegotons that make it possible. @KathrynMatlack https://t.co/Gmn06rLS3E

[Ganesh U. Patil @91ganesh91]

How much do we know so far yet how far we are from exploiting nonlinearity for advanced wave responses in phononic materials? Check our review that discusses recent progress and perspective on nonlinear phononic materials. https://t.co/9gkiw95VbH

@ERoumeli @JPolymSci @uw_mse @uwengineering Congrats Eleftheria! Very interesting paper!

[Katie Matlack @KathrynMatlack]

My students (@91ganesh91 & Ignacio) and I highlighted our group's recent work in the iMechanica Sept 2021 Journal Club "Phononic materials: controlling elastic waves in solids": https://t.co/CEyLSJYp69. We welcome your comments/thoughts!

@AECoso Thanks Alex!!

[Katie Matlack @KathrynMatlack]

Thrilled to get to work on this project! Thanks @NSF for the support and @mechseILLINOIS for the article :)

@ProfWJLab @mechseILLINOIS Thanks Amy!

[Katie Matlack @KathrynMatlack]

@haberman_ut @mechseILLINOIS @91ganesh91 Thanks Mike!

[Ganesh U. Patil @91ganesh91]

A bit of a late post but my presentation at @acousticsorg's #ASA179 meeting last December received first place Best Student Paper Award. I appreciate this recognition and looking forward to contributing to future meetings. @KathrynMatlack @ASAStudents
